About

Check out my Facebook pages, @ImagesbyDonna.photography, Images by Dearil & Steppin'wolf Irish Wolfhounds. I'm been an active member of Church on the Rock Texarkana since January 2001. Before that I was a member of Family Church in West Monroe, La. My husband and I have two photography businesses called ImagesbyDonna and Images by Dearil. At ImagesbyDonna we specialize in Newborn baby pictures. We also love to photograph expecting Moms, babies, toddlers, children and families. We do more than just take pictures, we create, and capture memories that last a lifetime! Images by Dearil specializes in action photography for pets and their people. We capture pictures of pets for lots of show dog owners at dog show throughout the south, but we also create art from our pictures. Interested in some artwork that features your pet? Give us a call! Before we started our photography business I was the director of the Animal Care & Adoption Center of Texarkana, Ark. Before that I worked for the Hope Police Department as an Animal Control Officer. I have worked in animal related jobs for over 30 years. I moved to Hope in Dec. of 2000 from Monroe, La. What do I miss most about Monroe? My church family, acting in Scrooge and at Monroe's Little Theater, and my little girl's soccer team. On May 15, 2010 I had my first date with Dearil and I also graduated from Texas A & M University Texarkana with a BA in Business Management. I went back to college so I could get a job as an animal shelter director, but now I'm using my education to run our photography business. I started showing dogs when I was 19. My late sister and I have shown and bred Irish Wolfhound for 20 years under the kennel name Steppin'wolf. One or more of our dogs have been ranked in the top 10 IW for the last 3 years. I live with my husband Dearil, our grandson Deval, 2 Irish Wolfhounds, 1 beagle/heeler mix, a Dorky named Noodle, 1 cats, and an African Gray parrot. We all live and work in Redwater, Texas.
